Lyrics[edit | edit source]

because you are
because you are
because you are
because you are
because you are

i've got the tremor to stay
because you are
i scar the stranger, betrayed
all of my senses ashamed
i will deny all that i am afraid
lies will disguise
rules of time and endgames

because you are
because you are
because you are
because you are
because you are

i chew the rust off my face
because you are
i wipe the stain off my haze
because you are
i am released, born of age
because you are
i stare inside empty faith

i will deny all that i am afraid
lies will disguise
rules of time and endgames
because you are

because you are
because you are
by choosing [?]
because you are
because you are
rinse the scars off my skin
because you are
i touch the scars of your skin
because you are
i let the travel begin
because you are
i let the travel begin
because you are
i let the travel begin
